Violence never resolves violence."

Violence is certainly something that our neighbors down south are not short on. Recently in the town of Los Ramones, the police station was brutally attacked by Drug Cartel members. they reportedly "fired more than 1,000 bullets and flung six grenades..." The 14 police officers working at the station escaped unharmed, but all promptly quit their jobs after the attack, fearing for their lives.
